Now that Johnson is back and Anibal Sanchez is expected after the break, whats going to happen to Hendrickson, Miller and Badenhop? I guess Tucker is working out of the bullpen now. Hendrickson and Miller have been pitching very badly as of late and I havent seen Badenhop pitch in a while. Is the starting rotation going to look like </p>
<p>1)Nolasco<br />
2)Olsen<br />
3)Johnson<br />
4)Sanchez<br />
5)Miller/Hendrickson</p>
<p>oh and what the hell is up with Joe Nelson&#39;s face? He kind of looks like Popeye.

Hell, I wanted Delmonico much more than TT during the search for baseball coach! As Clawing Cancer says, brownie points for TT on this one.</p>
<p>Pete we know about Morris and TT, however your statement about FIU coaches not enjoying a cold one with UM coaches sounded more than just baseball. How is MC&#39;s relationship with RS? If they are tight, then I guess RS is not in charge of scheduling. Their AD must be. Your thoughts.</p>

To think that a former SEC head coach is an assistant at FIU is absolutely mind-boggling. </p>
<p>Delmonico was pretty good at Tennessee; he wasn&#39;t an Ed Orgeron. And he recruited this area very well... he&#39;s up there with TT in terms of recruiting. This isn&#39;t just a good hire. This is a freakin&#39; coup! Gotta give it up to TT on this one (and PG, too). Jim Morris has to be sweating it out right now after hearing about this. Hell, probably every school who recruits here will crap enough bricks to help FIU build that brick campaign they&#39;re promoting. </p>
<p>It probably won&#39;t last, though, considering he&#39;s probably going to get a good offer once FIU takes off. But if he leaves after helping FIU get to Omaha, I doubt many of us will complain too much about it. Call it a hunch.</p>
<p>I guess the only thing I wonder about right now is that the hire, as good as it was, doesn&#39;t exactly address the pitching problems FIU had last year. I mean, I&#39;m sure Delmonico can snag a good arm or two, but moving a hitting coach to be a pitching coach has been tried before (Tony Casas) and it didn&#39;t work then. Still, though... that&#39;s a risk I&#39;d take to land a Delmonico.</p>
<p>I gotta admit... I feel a lot better about TT now after hearing this bit of news. Good work, PP. <br />

Some of it I am sure is due to the rumble that happened in the OB BUT a lot of it is that UM can not come to grips that they are not the main university in Miami... that belongs to FIU and that UM&#39;s fan base is, can we say, fickle at best.</p>scUMsanitizer commented on 'Number 15 With A Bullet'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451b26169e200e553ac51f988342008-07-09T14:26:26Z2008-07-09T14:26:26ZscUMsanitizerGreat hire indeed.

I remember him being the guy that most people wanted as head coach when FIU was looking for Danny&#39;s replacement.

Having Delmonico, a very successful former SEC Head Coach, to be just an assistant at FIU is very big indeed. Of course, I would suppose Delmonico, who was the favorite of many of us to replace DP, would be waiting to go back to head coach as soon as an &quot;acceptable&quot; offer from other top program happens....Thanks for the news, PP!!</p>
